Does brick increase home value?

• <div><p>Brick can increase the value of your home depending on the <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/what-are-most-common-masonry-materials.htm">type of masonry materials</a> used. Homes generally have a higher resale value when they have brick siding, and brick is also easier to maintain (and lasts longer) than other <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/pros-and-cons-different-house-siding.htm">types of siding</a>, which can motivate buyers to make an offer.</p><p>Just keep in mind, however, that although brick can up the asking price when you sell your house, the cost to brick a house is also more expensive than other typical siding costs—so you’ll invest more in the project.</p></div>

Q: Can you drill into brick with a regular drill?

• <div><p>You may not need a hammer drill if you&rsquo;re planning on drilling one or two very small diameter holes in brick. For holes with a diameter of 3/16-inch or less, a regular drill with a masonry bit can do the job. However, the bit will heat up quickly, and the process will take significantly longer than with a hammer drill. Prepare to cool your drill bit down in a bucket of water more often. </p></div>

Q: Is it worth sealing brickwork?

• <div><p>Most of the time, you don&rsquo;t need to seal brickwork and can save that money for another area of home improvement. But if your brick is cracking or you live in an area with a lot of excess moisture (either in terms of rain or freezes), sealing can extend the lifetime of your home. But, make sure you use a breathable sealant, like siloxane, to allow the moisture to evaporate on its own.</p></div>

Q: How do I find a local mason?

• <div><p>Always work with <a href="http://www.angi.com/nearme/masonry/">licensed and certified masons in your area</a> when installing a stone wall or even a stone veneer. Just like all home designers, they should provide an impressive portfolio and offer a free estimate for the project. Pick the pro who fits your budget and schedule and, most importantly, helps you realize your landscape vision. </p></div>

Q: Does brick stain peel?

• <div><p>Brick stain doesn&rsquo;t peel or chip and is much more durable than painting. That&rsquo;s because the staining is absorbed into the brick instead of lingering on the surface as paint does. The color retains even under extreme weather conditions. Therefore, brick stain will save you a lot of time and cost on maintenance in the long run.</p></div>

Pazcualâ s workers do a good job, work hard in all temperatures. We really appreciate their work ethic. Communication is sometimes not prompt and billing is not detailed at times. Pascual and his team did a very nice job on a new stone plantar and patio grill platform.

Piedmont did a great job. They were able to remove the dark streaks on the white gutters, remove rust streaks on the siding, helped moved some plants around, very professional, thoughtful and explained everything they were doing. Also went above and beyond by washing the stone facing and porch.
